Suppose technically this should read 'was I being unreasonable?'. Ok so at 6.30 this morning ds(4) comes into our room, 'Mummy there's a loofah on the wall above my bed'. (For those who don't know what loofah means I understand it's an mn term for those 8 legged spawns of the devil).
Now I really do hate these little fuckers, I am a terrible arachophobe but I went in to have a look coz sometimes he's just talking about one of those spindly ones that hang around in the corners and never move which I don't really have a problem with but no, it's a great black hairy monster, sat on the wall above his bed.
I go back in to my room and try to wake dh but he is having none of it so I wait, quivering, for his alarm to go off in 20 mins time. When he woke up he was still refusing to sort it out, I had to plead in a very undignified manner but eventually he went in there and dealt with it using the old glass/card method. I am obviously now very grateful but I think he thinks it's a bit pathetic of me to run to him to sort it out and not deal with them myself.
My question for other arachnophobes, do your dh/dps accept responsibilty for loofah disposal without argument? AIBU to expect mine to do this? Or do I need to try and 'get a grip'?
